Yer I think my head will see the light and I'll pick a Disco II. Dunno what yet, have to see what cash I have spare when I decide to buy.
I'll let you know when I'm breaking it.

The whine on the Disco has got a lot worse recently, sounded like ti was from the back so checked for wheel bearing play and topped up diff and no improvement.
Checked the fronts this evening and it had some play, really wanted to use the Disco this w/end so decided to grease it and try nipping it up a bit, started putting it all back together and then one of the fooking drive flange bolts sheered - bloody wonderful.
So I'm sitting here with a cold beer. Think I'll cheer myself up and see how many people i can shoot (Battlefield 2).

Well I have been busy this week Had my first go at welding
Cut the old stuff out first
Then welded some plates in
Then i painted the whole inside black
Still got a few jobs to do before its back on the road including the steering box which has now shat its load on my drive and both diff seals are leaking.
Anyone got a 300TDi Vac pump off a knackered engine?

Has anyone got working land rover left? seems its the month for breakdowns, unless you own a Jeep apparently....
I have sorted my handbrake after finding the drum went oval (god knows how but it had a high spot), swapped it for my disco one and now its all nice and works well... now just need to sort the diff seals although they are only weeping and replace that crunchy gearbox....

I'm not counting my chicken yet but the big end shells were well worn. Just got to put oil in the morning to see if it's any better. Then change over the turbo from my new donor engine. Fingers crossed.
